List two ways the Jim Crow laws limited the rights of African Americans.
alukav5142 [94]

Answer: Jim Crow laws were state and local laws that enforced racial segregation in the Southern United States.[1] All were enacted in the late 19th and early 20th centuries by white Democratic-dominated state legislatures to disenfranchise and remove political and economic gains made by blacks during the Reconstruction period.[2] The Jim Crow laws were enforced until 1965.[3]

In practice, Jim Crow laws mandated racial segregation in all public facilities in the states of the former Confederate States of America and in some other, beginning in the 1870s. Jim Crow laws were upheld in 1896 in the case of Plessy vs. Ferguson, in which the U.S. Supreme Court laid out its "separate but equal" legal doctrine for facilities for African Americans. Moreover, public education had essentially been segregated since its establishment in most of the South after the Civil War in 1861–65.

The legal principle of "separate but equal" racial segregation was extended to public facilities and transportation, including the coaches of interstate trains and buses. Facilities for African Americans were consistently inferior and underfunded compared to the facilities for white Americans; sometimes, there were no facilities for them.[4][5] As a body of law, Jim Crow institutionalized economic, educational, and social disadvantages for African Americans living in the South.[4][5][6]

Jim Crow laws and Jim Crow state constitutional provisions mandated the segregation of public schools, public places, and public transportation, and the segregation of restrooms, restaurants, and drinking fountains for whites and blacks. The U.S. military was already segregated. President Woodrow Wilson, a Southern Democrat, initiated the segregation of federal workplaces in 1913.[7]

Proof that Oscar Schindler was a hero
Rudik [331]

Answer:

Schindler owned a factory called Deutsche Emaillewaren-Fabrik and had secured numerous German army contracts for kitchenware.  He staffed a Jewish accountant who in turn connected him with the Krakow's Jewish community to staff the factory.  His company grew and he only hired Jewish workers. The Nazis started relocating his workers to the labor camps.  He devised a plan; creating a list of workers who was essential to the war effort, to give to the Nazis.  This list freed his workers and they continued to work in the factory.  This list saved the Krakow Jewish population because his plan was not to help the Nazis.  Schindler ordered his workers to purposefully make defective products that would fail inspections.  Those workers who were on the list spent the remaining months in the factory during the war and their lives were spared.  He basically saved 1,100 Jewish people.
